It's important to note, however, that in order for the WeConnect Go App to function you'll need to pair it to a Data Plug.
The Data Plug, which is mated to your vehicle’s On-Board Diagnostics system, reads data relating to the vehicle and streams it to your smartphone via Bluetooth.
According to Volkswagen SA, the plugs will be offered as standard on all Volkswagen models from the Polo Comfortline and above from July 2020.
Data Plugs can be retrofitted to older Volkswagen models dating back as far as 2008, but excluding the previous generation Polo Vivo.
You can purchase one from any Volkswagen dealer for R950 including VAT.
